Sticky Bbq Pork Belly Slices Recipes

STICKY CHINESE PORK BELLY

Steps:

• Add pork belly slices, stock, ginger, garlic, rice wine and sugar to a heavy-based pan. I use a cast iron casserole pan.
• Bring to the boil, then place a lid on, turn down the heat and simmer for 2 hours.
• Turn off the heat, remove the pork from the pan and pat it dry using kitchen towels. You can reserve the liquid if you like (Perfect for a Thai or Chinese noodle soup).
• Chop the pork into bite sized chunks.
• In a small bowl, mix together 1 tbsp of the oil, along with a pinch of salt and pepper, the ginger, chilli, honey, brown sugar, soy sauce and lemongrass paste.
• Add the remaining 1 tbsp of oil to a frying pan and heat over a medium-high heat.
• Add in the pork, along with a pinch of salt and pepper, and fry, turning regularly, until the pork starts to turn golden. Be careful as the oil can splatter at this stage (I recommend a splatter guard).
• Now pour the glaze over the pork and continue to cook for a couple of minutes, turning the pork often, until the pork looks dark and sticky.
• Remove from the heat and serve. I like to top with a few spring onions and chopped chillies.

STICKY BBQ PORK BELLY SLICES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200°C/Fan 180°C/Gas mark 6.
• Rub the belly pork in oil and season with pepper. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix all the BBQ sauce ingredients in a bowl.
• After the belly pork has cooked for 30 minutes pour away any oil and pour over the sauce. Now cook for a further 30 minutes, basting the pork frequently.
• Serve with rice, salad, coleslaw, a jacket potato or just by themselves - enjoy!

PORK BELLY SLICES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 160C/fan 140C/gas mark 4. Dry the belly slices with kitchen paper, then season with salt and pepper. Mix together the ingredients for the sauce and toss the slices in the sauce in a roasting tin. Cover tightly with foil and roast for 1hr 30 mins, until completely tender.
• Remove the foil and turn the grill to its highest setting. Grill the meat for 3-4 mins, turning it halfway and brushing over the sauce from the tin, until the sauce is thick and sticky and the slices are charred. Alternatively, put the braised slices on the barbecue and baste in the sauce from the roasting pan as they sizzle away. Serve in buns with coleslaw.
